    That is a spectacular set. They must have it on consignment because I think they've had it at that same price for at least 6 years. I believe they are unwilling to break it up too.

    Well, it beats the hell out of my set. If only I had the $$$ for something like those.

    No... I don't.... it often amazes me how some Buffs tarnish like this.... I have Buffs that have

    been in my collection for 40+ years and no tarnish.... Cheers, RickO

    Toning is okay. Some is better. On Buffaloes, like all coins, it can make one salivate.

    YES, I do love the toned Buffalo! Toning attracts the eyes to take a closer look at the coin. No matter what size coin. From the Lincoln Cent to the Morgan Dollar. Yes, I love the toned Buffalo.image One more thing: That toned set of buffs are the most high graded and the most beautifulest set I've ever seen! WOW! It's funny, I once had a set of Buffalo's(complete set) in which I sold for 1% of the price she is asking $850.image

    I've seen this set at a coin show I attended. It's without question thee most beautiful buffalo nickel collection I've ever seen.
    OVER THE TOP!!!

    It's difficult enough to put a DATE SET (which I have done) of something like this together, let alone a COMPLETE set! What an amazing accomplishment!

    BTW Clarkbar04, those are some pretty 1913 Var ones you have there. I have a number of nicely toned examples of these myself.

    Thanks, they are pretty elementary compared to what is in that collection though!
